Common Resource
Based in the environment of Metro Phoenix, public transportation is configured to affect the interactions between transportation, transportation users, infrastructure providers and infrastructure. Public transportation will only succeed if transportation matches the needs of riders. The creation of collective-choice arrangements such as vanpools and the online carpool-matching system will be a good fit for Phoenix. Monitoring its use will keep transportation in needed areas, and observing transportation-use patterns will keep the system running smoothly. "Nested units" (concerned citizens) will continue to guarantee that needed ideas (such as neighborhood circulators) continue to help connect neighborhoods to main routes.

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or resource:
“The classicist, and the naturalist who has much in common with him, refuse to see in the highest works of art anything but the exercise of judgement, sensibility, and skill. The romanticist cannot be satisfied with such a normal standard; for him art is essentially irrational—an experience beyond normality, sometimes destructive of normality, and at the very least evocative of that state of wonder which is the state of mind induced by the immediately inexplicable.”
—Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)
“If there is nothing new on the earth, still the traveler always has a resource in the skies. They are constantly turning a new page to view. The wind sets the types on this blue ground, and the inquiring may always read a new truth there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
